I'd really like to see see some competition from team green for the CR500 powered 250r's, so here it is, for all you T3 freaks. I've been told that the only mod necessary to drop this badboy in a T3 frame is moving the engine mounts, but I'm not positive. I have seen one Tecate 500 on cycle trader before, however, so I know it can be done. If I had the money, I'd snatch this up for myself and get the trike to go with it later.

1 HAVE A KX500 ENGINE IN ONE OF MY 86 TECATES. IT'S A PIECE OF CAKE CONVERSION. I FABBED MY OWN MOTOR MOUNTS AND PUT A FTZ DRAG PIPE ON IT. IT'LL BE GETTING A +8" SWINGARM AS SOON AS I GET IT MADE AND THE CRANK BALANCED THIS WINTER. I'VE GOT RIGHT AROUND $2000 IN IT RIGHT NOW TOTAL (COST OF BIKE, ENGINE, PIPE, ETC.), SO I HAVEN'T BLOWN THE BANK GETTING IT UP AND RUNNING!
